 		During the time before being permitted into the 48HIP forum, I was reading posts to gather information and also to get a feel for the personalities of the players. It was clear to me that Leith was one of the outstanding players of the game. When I needed help with information, Leith was the one I sought out. When a matter arose for which I needed advice, Leith was the person whose counsel I sought. In all cases he was helpful, wise, gracious, and humble. I hope he stays but respect his decision either way. Thank you Leith.

Our group has endured many difficulties..We all know this. However, this time we have lost 2 very important people to this group; Leith, and Neo, and you guys don't even seem to give two shits.


You're right, I don't. Not Leith. Matthew I do, because I always liked him. He has a lot going on in his life that I'm sure most of you remember from The Lounge. I'm not going to berate him or even aggravate the situation further by saying anything else. I wished him luck, the end.

Quote:
Personally attacking Leith, and saying that he is a failure is horrible as it is, but seeing no one backing him up is even more disturbing to me. This was expected of Icarus, but out of all of the rest of you? I am very disappointed.


What Leith failed to realize and so do you obviously, is that the majority of this `` virtual family `` never liked him, and would always agree with what I said. Thus no backing him up.

Quote:
The game has not moved much at all...You know why? It is because the dynamics of this group has seemed to evaporate...It saddens me to the core..But I do think this game is going to be crap without Leith and without Neo. If you guys can't see that...Well then maybe I don't belong here either....


Perhaps you don't. You and I may not get along 99.9% of the time, but you are an asset. You shouldn't leave over an argument between two other players. This game has progressed a lot actually, more-so than Trailmaster said it would. His exact quote was; `` uF will get things at a much more halted pace than you all have done. `` Our progression since coming to uF has been far from a `` halted pace. ``

Quote:
Why stay a part of something where I don't feel loved and wanted and needed. Pointless.


Look at the bigger picture. If you're coming online to an ARG to be loved, wanted and needed, you need to reevaluate your life.

Quote:
but I think it's unfair to do this to him and then shrug it off.


I wasn't shrugging it off, I was trying to move on to prevent further eruptions.

Quote:
I think an apology is needed.


His attack was against me, I feel justified in my retort. If he wishes to sign on AIM one day and talk to me, good deal. Other than that, no dice.

Quote:
I don't understand why someone would leave over getting their feelings hurt on the internet.


I agree. He and I have had it out way worse than this. We've moved past it because of the mutual respect we have (had?) for one another. We may not like each other, but we deal. However, it is a childish move and I'm not going to actively go after him and bring him back when I feel justified. Correct in the masses eyes or not, my feelings are my own.

With that said, can we all move on from this? It was dropped, brownies and hugs were passed around to everyone, then a shovel was thrown back into the dirt. You like me, you love me, you hate me, you despise me. Whatever your feelings may be, bring them to me in private so we can bury this.

 		Everyone just ignore icarus' post. Really, literally, ignore it.

I NOMINATED Leith, and so hope he doesn't feel unsupported by me. I thought the issue had been resolved. Sorry I didn't realize you had bailed, Leith! I thought you just busy with OOG stuff. Come back, we need you!

 		Yes, ignore me when I'm being civil, Heather.

Would you like me to revert back to the Icarus of the 48 forum?

Ignoring me won't solve anything, especially trying to be cool and publicly announcing it.

We're trying to move on and you make a post like that? Are you twelve?

 		I appreciate the 'moving on' segment of your post, but am furious at the 'nobody liked Leith anyway' part. you wanna edit that part out and I'll edit my post to something all flowery.

 		I do not edit the truth my dear.

Also, correction to your post : I said `` majority ``, not `` nobody. ``

Thanks for replying, though. Proves you're not ignoring me. =)

 		You being `` furious `` at a comment of truth is indeed a waste of time.

However, you continuing to fuel me drops the credibility of anything you post.

Move past this and quit responding. Everyone. From this post forward, the only thing that should be mentioned in this thread is in regards to the chat with ICON.

That does not include Leith leaving, our argument, personal opinions of personalities, etc.

 		The irony of that last post boggles the mind.
However, it's true that fighting doesn't further the plot.
I think Tres has been making some really cool finds that have been getting buried under the politics. What references to Adrien do we have other than the 'eyes filling with tears' email?

 		That question is best suited in its relevant thread.

 		Actually I think it may be relevant to this thread, since the email Tres received was from 'the storyteller'.

 		Fair enough. Please cross-post it in the e-mail thread where Adrian is mentioned.

 		Just to clarify, the email from The Storyteller that mentioned Adrian was to Tubby not me.
